Background


Tarashaj is Kosovar Albanian descent; his family emigrated to Switzerland from Prizren, Kosovo in 1984, which was at the time part of SFR Yugoslavia.[2]


Club career


Tarashaj was born in Hausen am Albis, Switzerland. He grew up in youth teams of Grasshopper Club Zürich.[3] Tarashaj made his Swiss Super League debut on 2 August 2014, coming on as a substitute for Alexander Merkel in a 0–0 draw against FC Sion.[4] Tarashaj started 2015–16 by scoring 5 goals in his first 4 games, including two braces against FC Zurich and FC Lugano. His contract with Grasshopper was renewed, extended to 2019.

On 7 January 2016, Tarashaj joined English club Everton on a 4+12-year deal. He was loaned back to Grasshopper, until the end of the season so that he could complete his national service.[5] He was loaned to German club Eintracht Frankfurt for the 2016–17 season.[6]

On 19 July 2018, Tarashaj returned to Grasshopper on a season-long loan deal with an option to make the deal permanent.[7]

Tarashaj moved to FC Emmen for a 2-season loan deal in July 2019.[8] His loan spell was cancelled in October 2020 and on his return, he was released by Everton.[9]

On 11 January 2021, Tarashaj joined Zürich, initially linking up with the club's under–21 side.[10]

On 7 October 2022, Tarashaj retired from football due to injuries.


International career


Tarashaj played for Switzerland's age-group teams, starting in 2011. Though he was sought by Albania, for whom he was also eligible to play,[11] he made his debut for the senior Swiss team on 25 March 2016.[12] He was selected for the Switzerland squad in UEFA Euro 2016,[13] but only made a single appearance, coming on as a late substitute against Romania.
